This witty and perceptive account of the early years of submarine development contains much new material and the lives of the forgotten pioneers of submarines.
It includes many wonderful inventions and even more colourful inventors, but focuses primarily on John Philip Holland, the Irish-American genius who took submarine development out of the hands of lunatics and visionaries and turned it into a deadly weapon of war
